The Almighty Lord Caspian novel Chapter 550

"Champion Benjamin! The enemy ships are too powerful. We might not be able to hold on!" a worried officer reported.

"We must protect South Aridlands at all costs. The Diatoranian God of War had entrusted me with the command of the South Aridlands' defense. If we lose here, all of Diatoran will be at stake," Benjamin stated.

"Champion Benjamin! It seems the enemy came prepared this time. Their weapons are causing significant damage, and our current equipment can't inflict any damage on them.

"Continuing to fight like this might lead to the destruction of our soldiers in South Aridlands!" The officer expressed his concerns.

"We must hold this position at any cost. We cannot let the Diatoranian God of War down. We'll have no honor left if South Aridlands falls," Benjamin declared.

Benjamin was aware of the dire situation in South Aridlands.

The current circumstances were beyond his control, and continuing this way could lead to the loss of South Aridlands. It was time to consult Caspian on the next steps.

"Contact the Diatoranian God of War immediately! I need to report our situation to him!" Benjamin ordered.

"Yes!" An officer quickly called Caspian using a satellite phone.

As the phone rang, Benjamin waited anxiously.

At this moment, Caspian was leading a large force toward West Aridlands when he unexpectedly received Benjamin's call.

"Hello! Champion Benjamin, what's the situation?" Caspian inquired.

"Diatoranian God of War! After you left, Astronia and Vadesia launched a fierce attack. We might not be able to hold on if this continues!" Benjamin reported.

"What's going on? Can't you handle the situation in South Aridlands without me?" Caspian asked. He sounded slightly displeased.

He had left the south less than a day ago, and the situation had already drastically changed.

Benjamin felt somewhat ashamed and said, "Diatoranian God of War, you are the leader of the Five War Gods. Your strategic insight far surpasses ours. The situation in South Aridlands is grim. When can you return?"

Benjamin hoped Caspian could return soon to relieve the situation.

Caspian was somewhat speechless.

He had traveled far to rescue Balthazar and was preparing to assist West Aridlands, which was in critical danger.

Now, South Aridlands was in a pickle, too. Caspian wished he could be in multiple places at once.

"Filren is about to breach the West Aridlands' defenses. The situation there is more urgent. I must repel the enemy there before I can return to command in South Aridlands," Caspian explained.

He was stretched thin and had to prioritize one front over the other.

"How long will you need on your end? We're barely holding on here!" Benjamin asked.

"The situation changes from time to time. Filren has deployed its elite forces. If things go well, the battle might end in a few hours, but it could also take days," Caspian said.

"You achieve swift victories wherever you go. Defeating Filren in just a few days would indeed be a testament to your role as Diatoran's savior," Benjamin praised.

"Enough with the flattery. Tell me honestly, how long can you hold out?" Caspian asked sternly.

"With Astronia and Vadesia's elite forces attacking and their ships' powerful weaponry, and our countermeasures mostly intercepted, I estimate we can only hold for four days." Benjamin didn't dare exaggerate.

"Then, start evacuating the residents of Southlake City to safer areas," Caspian instructed calmly.

"Are you giving up on Southlake City?" Benjamin asked, puzzled.

"If you can only hold for four days and I can't provide support in time, a direct clash would mean death for the residents. It's better to evacuate now," Caspian reasoned.

"Astronia and Vadesia will push forward aggressively if Southlake City falls, putting Diatoran in jeopardy!" Benjamin argued urgently.
